Electric Jacks Retraction

Recommended Posts

I  was told electric jacks didn't like the cold. Sure enough it was about 20 degrees today and it took about 4 false starts before they went up.

Press the button, they would go up about a second and stop. Reset and then same thing.

After 4 tries the jacks went up, except the passenger side which only went up about 4 inches. I cycled them all down and then they all went up without a problem.

So..... Do I have a problem or is this somewhat normal?

Weather is crap right now and the coach is in storage...sadly, outside. I think The jacks are Atwoods but it will take a day or so to get to it to look at the manuals- New coach to me, just celebrating a 2 week birthday. It will get north of 20 degrees next week and I'll run the jack down and clean them off.... will send updates as things develop.

I have Power Gear electric jacks. I've never had problems due to temperature now moisture is a different story. If they are electric, the only thing to clean are the magnets on the edge of each leg. This is for position sensing.
